phone-reading

With the announcement of the selection results of the major awards of the NBA season, some people are happy and some are worried.

Just as Lin Yi kept piercing the hearts of a bunch of people, the first round of the NBA playoffs in the 2009/10 season was all over...

East and West semifinals, here we come!

Next, the first contest between the Knicks and the Celtics in the Eastern Conference semifinals will be held on May 1, while the first matchup between the Cavaliers and Magic in the other Eastern Conference semifinals will be held on May 3. Last year, the Cavaliers It was defeated by the Magic in the Eastern Conference Finals. This time the Eastern Conference semifinals were full of topics, and the attention reached a new high.

As for the situation in the Western Conference playoffs, all the first rounds of the Western Conference playoffs went to Game 6, and the winning teams won 4-2 without exception.

The first team to advance to the Western Conference playoffs is of course the number one favorite, the Los Angeles Lakers. Kobe used his average shooting percentage of about 42% in the series to teach the Shuangxiao how to play... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh The importance of good teammates, Bynum and Gasol are the key to this round of the series, the Thunder lacks players to protect the frame, so it is logical for them to be eliminated by the Lakers.

In addition, as Lin Yi remembered, without George Karl, the Nuggets lost to the Jazz. "Melon" played well in this round of the series, averaging 30+ per game. However, the Jazz's lineup is thicker. After six confrontations , Jazz had the last laugh.

The Suns defeated the Trail Blazers 4-2. Roy's comeback failed to save the Trail Blazers' fate, and what worried the Trail Blazers fans was that Roy was injured again...

As for the battle between the bulls and horses... Mavericks fans were heartbroken again. They were not blacked out this time, but they were blacked out. The Spurs eliminated the Mavericks 4-2 and successfully advanced to the Western Conference semifinals. In the finals, they will be their old opponents in the semifinals - the Phoenix Suns.

Of course, Lin Yi knew that the Suns fans could finally vent their anger this time, because if it was as he remembered, the Suns would sweep the Spurs in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

...

In the ESPN Celtics VS Knicks forward vote, 79 of the 100 reporters and experts who participated in the voting believed that the Celtics could successfully advance, and 19 of them believed that the Celtics could sweep the Knicks. There are 31 people who think that the Celtics can beat the Knicks 4-1, 17 people think that the Celtics can beat the Knicks 4-2, and only 12 people think that the Celtics will beat the Knicks through a tiebreaker.

Among the other 21 experts who are optimistic about the Knicks, except for 1 person who believes that the Knicks can beat the Celtics 4-1, the other 20 people believe that the Knicks can only eliminate the Celtics through a tiebreaker.

It is not difficult to see from people's votes that although this Knicks team has been recognized by everyone, and although Lin Yi has become the strongest rookie in people's eyes, people still think that the Celtics are stronger.

Of course, Lin Yi himself thought so too.

Because this Green Army is quite restrained from this Knicks in terms of system. There are Rondo and Tony Allen on the outside, Perkins and Wolf King on the inside, Pierce and Ray Allen on the offensive. ", Lin Yi doesn't even know how the Lakers won the Celtics... Maybe it would be better to let O'Neal's grandma replace Rivers to coach?

However, the Celtics are strong, and Lin Yi will not give up.

The first is to put your mind right.

The Knicks have to put themselves in the right position to have a chance at the next gram.

After all, for the Knicks, they have nothing to lose, and this is their greatest capital.

And their opponent, the Celtics, can't afford to lose a game.

...

D'Antoni communicated with Lin Yi in the training game before the game. Both the master and apprentice believed that if the Knicks want to create opportunities, they must first bring the rhythm and intensity of the game.

"Our advantage is that we are young, so Mr. Coach, you must increase the rotation in this series, otherwise we did not kill the Celtics, but we would be embarrassed if we ran to the death first.

"Lin Yi joked.

D'Antoni also blushed, embarrassed, do you have the main force who loves to die so much? Because Lao De felt that he was still willing to give role players a chance!

Lin Yi smiled. It is true that D'Antoni is willing to give role players a chance, but that is based on the fact that the Knicks can lead by a large score. If the situation is stalemate, like the fourth game with the Heat, D'Antoni will definitely Fuck the main force.

In the future, Steve Kerr, who will really achieve the ultimate rotation, will be much shrewd in this regard. Of course, the Warriors' assistant coaches also contributed a lot.

Kerr's theory is simple. If you think about the series in the long run, even if you lose one or two games because of the rotation, you will have an advantage.

Because the playoffs are intense and costly, this is a bit like a high-grade horse against a medium-grade horse, a medium-grade horse against a low-grade horse, and a low-grade horse to compete with a high-grade horse.

So in this round of the series, the Knicks must rotate, because even if they are the main players, they are not as thick as the Celtics. If D'Antoni is really the main players, the Knicks have a high probability of being swept.

Lin Yi was not afraid that he would not be able to convince D'Antoni, because D'Antoni also felt that the Knicks' ability to reach the second round was enough, so Lao De was also willing to try Lin Yi's suggestion.

...

On April 30th, the Knicks came to Boston one day earlier. In this round of the series, the Knicks have no home court advantage. The home court of the Celtics is also the home court of the Devils. The Celtics’ winning rate at home in the regular season this season is as high as 83%. so.

On May 1, at the TD North Shore Garden Arena, the Knicks and Celtics ushered in the first contest of this series.

There are not many players in this Knicks team who have experienced the playoffs. Harrington once followed the Warriors to complete the black eight. He is the most experienced player in the team. Young people are doing ideological work.

"Mike, I really didn't expect us to get to where we are today!" Knicks' third assistant coach Donaldson said a little excitedly before the game.

Isn't D'Antoni suppressing the excitement in his heart?

The Knicks were still doing badly last season, but this season they have leapt to become a powerhouse in the Eastern Conference.

It's really unbelievable to walk this way.

...

When the Knicks players set foot on the TD North Shore Garden Arena, the 17 championship banners hanging above the court are eye-catching.

If you look at the history of the NBA, the Celtics and Lakers are probably the real giants.

The legendary quarterback Tom Brady of the New England Patriots also came to the scene today. He is a fan of the Celtics.

Lin Yi took a deep breath. He is also human, so of course he would be nervous.

But more excited.

Look, that's Paul Pierce.

Look, that's Kevin Garnett.

Here! That's Ray Allen.

The certified version of the Big Three plus Long's guidance and Perkins is the Celtics' starting lineup tonight.

"I hope we can win an away game first, so that we can turn away from the guest." Lin Yi thought to himself while warming up.
